10 POWERFUL DUAS FROM THE

QUR'AN & SUNNAH

Thank you for downloading this free Du'a sheet, may Allah (swt) bless you! This Du'a list accompanies the
blog post entitled "One Super Easy Way to Immediately Improve Your Salah" in which we encourage you to
learn some extra Du'as & Dhikr to add into your Salah to increase its value and attain more rewards.

Below are a list of 10 powerful Du'as from the Qur'an and Sunnah (plus a bonus Du'a at the end). It is
recommended to learn both the Arabic and the translation for maximum Khushoo (tranquility) during
Salah.

Although these Du'as can be recited at any time in which we invoke Allah, in the blog post we recommend
adding these Du'as during the last sitting of the prayer (tashahhud). After reciting the tashahhud
(attahiyaat) and reciting Durood upon the Prophet (pbuh), you may select one or more of the Du'as below
to recite before performing the taslim to end the prayer. Remember, these Du'as as not exclusively for this
time only, but may be recited during many other occasions too.

There are also many more Du'as that can be recited during this portion of the prayer, however we have
selected only a few of our favourites to help you get started with memorising.

Du'a 1

Rabbanā ātinā fid-dunyā hasanatan wa fil 'ākhirati hasanatan waqinā 'adhāban-nār

"Our Lord! Grant us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and save us from
the chastisement of the Fire" [2:201]

This tremendous Du'a was known to be regularly recited by the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).

Many of the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) had their own opinions of what "good" in this
world referred to, however a common opinion was that this Du'a is one that is all-encompassing and should
be recited regularly.

Mihjan bin Al-Adra' narrated to him that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) entered the masjid and there was a
man who had finished his prayer and he was reciting the tashahhud. He said: 

Allāhumma innee as-aluka yā Allāhu bi annakal wāhidul ahadus-samad allaḑhī lam

yalid wa lam yūlad wa lam yakul-lahū kufuwan-ahad, antaghfira lī ḑhunūbī innaka
antal-ghafūrur-rahīm 

O Allah, I ask You. O Allah,You are the One, the Only, Self-Sufficient Master, Who was not begotten and
begets not and none is equal to Him. Forgive me my sins, surely you are Forgiving, Merciful.

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said: "He has been forgiven" three times. [An-Nasa'i, Ahmad]

O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the punishment of the grave, and from the  punishment of Hell-fire,
and from the trials of life and death, and from the evil of the trial of the False Messiah. [Bukhari]

Abu Bakr  As-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) reported:

I requested the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) to teach me a supplication which I could recite in my Salat
(prayer). Thereupon he said, "Recite:

faghfirlī maghfiratan min 'indika warhamnī innaka antal ghafūrur-rahīm
